Thats really cool! Is this done for both the way in to the country and also on the way out? Also, is it everything in duty free?

Awesome you tried it. This is the future imo. Lightning, Zap, Done.

✈️ You can pay for everything at the duty free shop Tax Free Norway AKA Travel Retail Norway AS, upon arrival at Oslo Airport Gardemoen. "This option currently applies only to Click & Collect upon arrival at Oslo, but TRN is considering expanding to other stores and payment formats." Check out previous notes for more information, e.g. in the English and Norwegian press releases from Tax Free Norway 🇳🇴 The setup: - 3 x Bitcoinize Payment Terminals - @BTCPay Server - @Blink Wallet ⚡️ View quoted note → View quoted note → View quoted note → View quoted note →

I’m actually not sure if it’s going in and out, but I assume so. It is only in the “click and collect” part of duty free though so had to pre book the order online at least 2 hours before going there

Yeah!

You wrote world history @stian, as the first freedom money paying customer at Tax Free Norway, Oslo airport ✈️

So cool, let’s go! 😀

Seems steep for lightning fee!

The fee depends on the lightning wallet you’re paying from, @Dr. Bitcoin, MD @stian was paying from the one of a kind splicing and self custody Phoenix Wallet by ACINQ⚡️ “Phoenix Wallet uses variable fees for Lightning Network (LN) transactions, charging around 0.4% for sending (including routing). No fee for receiving LN payments” It would be a lower fee to pay from e.g @Wallet of Satoshi but the privacy would be much worse than @stian's self custody, privacy and splicing choice, Phoenix Wallet⚡️ @Blink Wallet is the recipient of the lightning transaction.

When the market develops, the costs will fall in time. But it’s still very early days right now.

I agree, @Dr. Bitcoin, MD Phoenix Wallet by ACINQ currently has a monopoly on a good UX splicing wallet. When splicing @Alby @ZEUS and @EVAN KALOUDIS?

ACINQ is a Bitcoin technology company with a focus on the Lightning Network.

I remember buying lightning ear rings after spending an entire day trying (pre-pandemic)…and it was a few years after that that I was able to get my unspent funds out of that channel…I was way way way to early to lightning for my skill level.
